When mealtime comes, prepare delicious homemade meals in the well-appointed kitchen with all stainless steel appliances and a cute coffee/tea corner with a Keurig coffee maker. Sliding glass doors lead you to the wraparound deck, which overlooks the forest and offers a great dining spot.From there, you can also enjoy a soak in the private hot tub.

    Our family had a great time. This was a great space indoors and outdoors. We enjoyed being up in the mountains and close enough to the lake and all the activities.

    Great space indoors and outdoors. Loved being in the mountains and not far from the lake, restaurants, and shopping. Really enjoyed the falls and trails near the home. Would love to stay here again. Thank you for being pet friendly

    This property met our expectations. Everything was as it is described in the listing. Plenty of room for everyone and kitchen was very well equipped. Clean and comfortable. Unfortunate run in with wasps on day one but we took care of them. Another fob would be helpful for groups that are not all coming and going at the same time. We would recommend this property for a beautiful mountain getaway.

    Our visit to Deep Creek was everything we hoped for. The property was beautifully appointed with every amenity you could possibly need. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at ease. The host truly thought of everything, making it effortless to settle in and unwind.The location was a bit more remote than we thought but was wonderfully quiet—exactly what we were looking for. Please bit It takes about 15-20min drive to nearby McHenry for any type of restaurant or grocery store. The property is located near wisp resort but not within walking distance. As part of the check in process you will need to pick up a key fob beforehand but other than that,Check in was a breeze. Once we got there, we didn’t feel the need to leave. The entire property is enveloped by wooded area and you are in a private community. It was the kind of place that invites you to slow down. No rushing, no schedule—just space to relax. The host provide a spacious and well decorated home. Plenty of room for 6 adults to unwind, eat a good dinner and just spend time with each other. We especially enjoyed the pool table, board games and the hot tub in the evenings. It made for a perfect way to end our peaceful days. Swallow Falls was a short drive away and worth the visit, but even that didn’t feel like a “must do”—because being at the house was its own retreat.If you’re looking for a place to unplug, recharge, and breathe a little deeper, this is it.

    Such a clean and comfy home. The kitchen was well stocked and the game room was perfect for our family! And Walmart will deliver to the house which is a huge bonus!

    What an amazing house. So much fun inside and outside. House has everything you need for a fun trip! You can enjoy a relaxing weekend curled up with a good book by the fire staring out at the wonderful rocks. Play pool, cards or watch a movie on the large tv. The yard is like a state park with trails through the rocks. So much fun outside climbing rocks, enjoying a bonfire, and eating out on the deck to take in the view. So close to Rock Maze, Swallow Falls, and only 20 minutes to Deep Creek and all the amenities at the lake! Can’t wait to come back, we had a great time!

    This place is so spacious and beautiful. We sat on the couch watching out the back in the woods, relaxing and watched deer and a baby fox just doing their thing. There’s activities for the kids relaxation for the parents. The house has plenty of space very well taken care of And exceptionally clean. I would highly recommend.

    Beautiful house with modern amenities and contemporary furnishing, and an incredible garden and fire pit. The Rocks is perfect for anyone looking for a quiet and secluded spot, but is also close to amazing rivers and hiking. We appreciated all of the small touches like lots of fresh towels, a well-stocked spice cabinet and a big laundry room with everything we needed. We did a lot of living, loving and laughing during our stay.
